Check your fuel system. look at the filter and then drain the waer drain T and then open the air bleed on top and turn the key or jump the lift pump relay to power it.
Also, if it is the driver, It may be possible to retorque the transistor nuts and have it work again.

I will try to retourque the bolts.Also when it stalls usually if i try and start it in netural its harder to start then if i put it in drive turn the key forward then back in N then try and start.I have a pmd cooler mounted to it.The cooler is mounted on top of the intake,i know its a bad place but i didnt have a extension for the harness.Could the pmd go bad that fast.

I have a spare PMD in Athens, Tx for $ 50 (without a heat sink) but you need to be sure the heat sink is a good one. I will guarantee the PMD works when installed, but I can not guarantee how lonk. The cheap heat sink on ebay ( blue) probably is not going to work. I have had my PMD on the intake ( no extension ) for 6 months with no problems. I do not like extending the cable because of probagation delay, especially with over 10 amps.
Last time I looked gmpartsdirect.com had them new for about $168, which is less than half of what the dealer tries to rip you for. Also Ebay usually has used pumps with PMD's on them some for as little as $20, if your the gambling type.

Depends upon your odds. You could buy three pumps and have one good spare PMD out of the three of them off of the auction site.
I think the lesser of the two evils there on the idea of no extension harness would be shortened PMD life as opposed to the little gains of the not extending it electrically speakin'. If you are that concerned about not extending the harness, leave it on the pump, because the pump provides better cooling than that of the heat sink over the intake. Your heat sink is only as good as the cool air 'round it. Not much 'round 'bout that dar intake.
